FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention embraces a computerized system for identifying and redistributing complementary resources. The system is typically configured for: analyzing resources and attributes to identify a subset of users having complementary resources; generating an integrated resource cluster comprising the subset of users; distributing resource transfer tasks from a received resource exchange request to the integrated resource cluster to dispense outbound resources; determining an inbound resource total for the integrated resource cluster; and transferring calculated resource divisions the subset of users comprising the integrated resource cluster.

BACKGROUND

With the proliferation of Internet technology in recent times, people may utilize online systems to connect with other users or access resources. Conventional methods may include using online website postings to coordinate the users and resources. That said, there are a number of technical problems with using conventional online systems in this manner. In particular, current systems require the users to constantly sift through postings to determine what is relevant and not relevant, thereby leading to inefficiencies of computing resources such as processing power, memory, and network bandwidth.

Accordingly, there is a need for a more efficient and dynamic way to connect users and resources with one another.

BRIEF SUMMARY

The following presents a simplified summary of one or more embodiments of the invention in order to provide a basic understanding of such embodiments. This summary is not an extensive overview of all contemplated embodiments, and is intended to neither identify key or critical elements of all embodiments, nor delineate the scope of any or all embodiments. Its sole purpose is to present some concepts of one or more embodiments in a simplified form as a prelude to the more detailed description that is presented later.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS OF THE INVENTION

Embodiments of the present invention will now be described more fully hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which some, but not all, embodiments of the invention are shown. Indeed, the invention may be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein; rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will satisfy applicable legal requirements. Like numbers refer to elements throughout. Where possible, any terms expressed in the singular form herein are meant to also include the plural form and vice versa, unless explicitly stated otherwise. Also, as used herein, the term “a” and/or “an” shall mean “one or more,” even though the phrase “one or more” is also used herein.

“User” as used herein may refer to an individual or entity that utilizes a system for identifying, pooling, and managing resources as described herein. In some embodiments, the user may be a representative of a business entity. In other embodiments, the user may be an independent contractor who is looking to offer a resource to other users in the system. For instance, a user may be a participant who wishes to offer services and goods to the other users within the system. To this end, another the user may be a participant who wishes to obtain services or goods from the users within the system. In this way, the system connects users together so that they may efficiently exchanges resources with one another.

“Entity” as used herein may refer to an individual or an organization that owns and/or operates the resource management systems and the associated computing systems. The entity may be a business organization, a non-profit organization, a government organization, and the like.

“User device” as used herein may refer to a computing device used by the user to access the system through an online portal. The user device may include a processor, a non-transitory storage medium, a communications device, and a display. The system may support user logins and inputs from any combination of disparate devices. Accordingly, the user device may be a portable electronic device such as a smartphone, tablet, or laptop, or the user device may be a stationary unit such as a personal desktop computer or a networked terminal within an entity's premises.

“Resource” as used herein may refer to a property of the user over which the user exercises control, or an asset belonging to the user. For instance, a resource may refer to a particular good or service which the user may wish to provide to or obtain from other users. The resource may further refer to intangible assets, such as a user's credentials.

“Resource data” as used herein may refer to a data structure that is associated with a particular resource. Resource data is identified, manipulated, or classified by the system, and may include various types of information upon which the system performs its various functions. In some embodiments, the information may include an offer to sell goods or services. In other embodiments, the information may include a request for goods or services. The information may further include location data, pricing data, or time data. The information may further include an identity of a user or various characteristics or statistics of the user.

“Classification” as used herein refers to a status attributed to resource data by the system in order to provide for organization or grouping of the resources. In some embodiments, resources may be classified by “likeness,” or by certain similar characteristics inherent to the resource. In some embodiments, resources may also be classified according to links established by the system's user base, independently of the “likeness” of the resources within such a classification. In this way, the system may intelligently provide recommendations of resources to the user even if the relevance of such resources to the user is not immediately evident. Classifications for resources may be stored in a classifications database, and may include a unique fixed-length string to identify the classification. The fixed-length string may be a numerical value such as “8251,” a cryptographic hash, or a plain-text description of the classification, such as “Linux drivers.”

Embodiments of the present invention provide a system for identifying and pooling resources, as well as tools that enable users to manage the pooled resources. In particular, the system may identify resource data provided by an authenticated user and assign a classification to the resource based on the data type. The system may further create logical links between and amongst the resources provided by all authenticated users within the system according to their respective classifications, grouping like resources or related resources together. Resources may be assigned to one or more classifications and may be “tagged” for later identification and retrieval by the system based on the data contained within the resources. For example, the system may classify resources according to various criteria, such as data file types, key words or phrases, upload date, geographic restrictions, and the like. The system may then provide the aggregated data to the user for further processing and input. In some embodiments, the classifications for particular resources and logical links between particular resources may be stored in a classifications database. The system may further provide classifications for users based on the types of resource data they upload or access. For instance, a user may be classified according to certain criteria, such as skillsets, geographic location, areas of expertise/profession, and the like. In this way, the system may build a profile of a user based on the user's numerous classifications, and accordingly recommend certain resources according to the logical links created amongst the user and the resources.

The system may include a data collection module which tracks inputs from users on a real-time basis, where the inputs may be resource data or requests for resources. In some embodiments, the system may further include a data analytics engine that, based on both historical data and data provided by the users in real time, predicts future subsequent actions or inputs by the user based on the resource data provided by the user or actions taken by the user, and provide suggestions of potential resources or portal tools of interest to the user. Such historical data may be stored on a long-term basis in a user input database. By calculating predictions and providing resource or tool suggestions, the system prevents the need for the user to manually seek out resources related to one's interest. For instance, in one embodiment of the invention, a user may upload a file including a sample of source code to the system. The system may detect that the file includes source code, and based on the contents of the source code therein, the system may make a number of recommendations to the user. The system may make this determination, for example, by reading the contents of the source code, such as the types of functions used, the programming language used, and the software libraries incorporated within the code. In response, the system may provide a listing of additional project opportunities that may be suitable to the user. The system may also provide a list of users within the system who could serve as collaborators on a given coding project, which the system identifies by detecting that the users have worked on similar projects in the past. In other embodiments, a user may upload a posting to provide goods or services, where the posting includes data of various file types and may include images, videos, text, and the like. The system may characterize the data within the posting by analyzing it for image or video metadata, or keywords. Based on this analysis, the system may then dynamically provide the user with a number of suggestions for resources that are related to the posting, which may include other users who are potentially interested in the good or service offered, or a suggestion to purchase a material that is necessary to provide the service. In some embodiments, the system may provide rewards to users who exchange resources to other users through the system. In some embodiments, the system may analyze user data (e.g., historic transaction data) to assess the likelihood that a particular user may be unable to or otherwise fail to pay for resources purchased through the system, deliver resources purchased by others through the system, deliver satisfactory resources, and the like. This information may be provided to other users of the system. In addition, the system may guarantee a user payment from another user through the system (e.g., to purchase goods or services from the user) and/or the delivery or quality of a resource purchased through the system. Accordingly, in the event the user does not receive a payment or a resource or the quality of a resource is deficient, the system may compensate the user.

In some embodiments, the system may include an online portal which serves as the interface between the system and the users. The system may run its processes on a server or network of servers which users may access using a computing device. In some embodiments, the system may provide to the user a client application or program which is used to access the server-side application over a network. The online portal may present a graphical interface to the display of the user device, through which the user may select from a number of tools and functions provided by the system. For instance, the system may provide tools to pool resources with or amongst users within the system.

The graphical interface may include a number of panels which may receive inputs or display information to the user. For example, the graphical interface may include a resource input panel, which allows the user to upload resource data into the system. The resource input panel may contain buttons or areas that receive user input related to the resources, such as a text entry box, or a sub-panel through which the user may upload various media files to the system. The graphical interface may further include a resource listing panel, which contains a list of resources sorted by its classification. The resource listing panel may also contain various filters to allow the user to change the number and order of resources listed on the screen at once according to certain criteria, such as upload date, classification, resource contents, popularity, and the like. In this way, the resource listing panel allows the user to effectively browse through the resources uploaded to the system.

The graphical interface may also include a notifications panel, through which the system provides resource recommendations to the user. The resource recommendations displayed in the notifications panel may further contain a selectable link which the user may use to directly access the suggested resource. In some embodiments, the graphical interface may include a resource information panel, which provides a user with statistical data about a selected resource by comparing the user-inputted resource data with like resources data provided by other users within the system. For example, the user may upload a posting to provide a particular good for a particular price. The system may recognize that the posting includes an offer to provide a particular good, identify the classification of the particular good, and retrieve statistical pricing data for the particular good. The system may then provide this data to the user through the resource information panel, and may further provide a pricing suggestion for the good to be provided.

In some embodiments, the system may dynamically track usage data through the resource management application on the user device. In particular, the resource management application may track user inputs, such as mouse cursor positions, touchscreen inputs, key strokes, and the like. The system may establish a secure communication channel with the resource management application or other client application on the user device in order to obtain real-time usage data of the user's actions within the application. Based on these user inputs as well as historical data and the user's attributes/classification(s) (and attributes/classification(s) of resources of the user), the system may predict future actions that the user intends to take (e.g., within a client application) and make recommendations according to the predictions. For instance, the system may track the length of time and level of activity with which the user spends viewing data relating to a particular resource. In such an embodiment, the system may gauge the duration that a user spends viewing a posting for a good or service, and track whether the user has opened any attachments associated with the posting, such as images or videos. In this way, the system may estimate the level of interest in a particular resource by a particular user and assign a “relevance score” to the classification of the particular resource. The system will consider higher relevance scores to represent resources that are more relevant to a user. Subsequently, the system may then provide a list of potentially relevant resources in the notifications panel, which may be populated with references sorted by their relevance score or classification, e.g. users of classification A are typically interested in resources of classifications B, C, and D.

In some embodiments, rather than or in addition to providing suggestions, the data analytics engine may, based on tracking a user's inputs, the user's attributes, historical data, and the like, dynamically predict subsequent actions that the user intends to take within the graphical interface or otherwise when interacting with the resource management system. Thereafter, the system may transmit a command to a client application on the user's device that causes the application to display an interface for performing the predicted future action. For example, the system may have stored historical data which shows that a user requests access to a particular resource when the user logs onto the system in regular time intervals. Upon detecting that the user has logged on, that the calculated time period has passed, and the user has not yet requested the particular resource, the system may automatically prompt the user to access the particular resource. In this way, the system allows the user to bypass the manual extraneous steps to access the particular resource, thereby improving the computing efficiency of the servers on which the system is implemented.

The system may further establish relevance scores or classifications for a resource based on the resource's use by users in the system. For instance, the system may track the number of times one resource is linked to or accessed by another resource. The system may further track the number of times a resource was accessed through the recommendations panel. In this way, the system may intelligently increase the relevant scores for resource combinations/suggestions even if such combinations of classifications were not predefined by the system or its administrators. In other words, the system may dynamically adjust its recommendations system to account for unusual or unexpected resource pairings or changes in trends regarding the resources amongst the system's users.

In some embodiments, the system may be owned or operated by an entity. In such embodiments, the entity may employ additional computer systems, such as authentication servers, to validate and certify resources inputted by the plurality of users within the system. The system may further use its authentication servers to certify the identity of users of the system, such that other users may verify the identity of the certified users. In some embodiments, the entity may certify the identity of the users.

The system addresses a number of computer technology-centric challenges as described above. As noted, the system is typically configured to dynamically predict future actions that a user intends to take (e.g., within a client application on the user's device that interacts with the resource management system) by monitoring a user's inputs, attributes, historical data, and the like. By dynamically predicting future actions, the system is then able to prompt the user to complete the predicted action, while avoiding intermediate interactions that the system would have otherwise had with the user. By avoiding these intermediate interactions, the system is able to reduce demands on computer resources. In addition, by dynamically identifying and pooling like data, the system improves the efficiency of the online system by reducing the incidence of wasted computing resources caused by manual searching of relevant resources by the users. In other words, by automatically providing suggestions for resources based on their identified data classification, the system removes the need for the user to strain the system's servers by manually sifting through irrelevant data. Instead, the system intelligently provides the relevant data to the user before such manual searching takes place, thereby increasing computing efficiency. The types of computing resources saved by the foregoing may include, but are not limited to, processing power, memory space, storage space, cache space, electric power, and networking bandwidth.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram illustrating an operating environment 001, in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention. The operating environment may include a plurality of user devices 100 in operative communication with a resource management server 101 over a network 180. The network 180 may also be a global area network (GAN), such as the Internet, a wide area network (WAN), a local area network (LAN), or any other type of network or combination of networks. The network 180 may provide for wireline, wireless, or a combination wireline and wireless communication between devices on the network 180. The user device may be a mobile device such as a smartphone, tablet, or laptop, a personal computing device such as a desktop computer, smart device, single board computer, or a device owned and operated by an entity, such as a computer system terminal located on the entity's premises. The resource management server 101 is responsible for running the resource management application and running its various processes. It should be understood that the resource management server 101 as depicted herein may be embodied in a single server or multiple servers distributed over varying geographic distances.

Generally, the user devices 100 are used to log onto the resource management server 101 over the network 180 to access the online portal (e.g., over a secure communication channel). The resource management server 101 may require that authentication credentials are provided by the user device 100. In some embodiments, the authentication credentials may include a username, password, a biometric identifier, a cryptographic key, a token, and the like. The resource management server 101 may further require that more than one authentication credential is provided as parts of a multi-step authentication process. Once the user has been authenticated, the user may log onto the online portal on the resource management server 101 using the user device 100 to access the resources and resource management tools therein.

In some embodiments, the operating environment may further include a third party server 102 which may be in operative communication with the user device 100, the resource management server 101, or both, over the network 180. The third party server 102 may contain data associated with the user which may be accessed by some of the resource management tools run on the resource management server 101. This configuration allows the resource management server 101 to automatically pull the data associated with the user from the third party server 102 in order to run its various processes. For example, the third party server 102 may contain data relating to the user's financial accounts, and the resource management server 101 may provide tools to manage that data. In such an embodiment, the user may provide a second set of authentication credentials associated with the user's financial account to the third party server 102 directly. Alternatively, the user may store the second set of authentication credentials on the resource management server 101, which may then use said authentication credentials to access the data within the third party server 102.

FIG. 2 is a block diagram illustrating the resource management server 101 and the user device 100 in more detail, in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention. The resource management server 101 typically contains a processor 120 communicably coupled to such devices as a communication interface 110 and a memory 130. The processor 120, and other processors described herein, typically includes circuitry for implementing communication and/or logic functions of the resource management server 101. For example, the processor 120 may include a digital signal processor device, a microprocessor device, and various analog to digital converters, digital to analog converters, and/or other support circuits.

The resource management server may use the communication interface 110 to communicate with other devices over the network 180. The communication interface 110 as used herein may include an Ethernet interface, an antenna coupled to a transceiver configured to operate on a cellular data or WiFi signal, and/or a near field communication (“NFC”) interface.

The resource management server may include a memory 130 operatively coupled to the processor 120. As used herein, memory includes any computer readable medium (as defined herein below) configured to store data, code, or other information. The memory may include volatile memory, such as volatile Random Access Memory (RAM) including a cache area for the temporary storage of data. The memory may also include non-volatile memory, which can be embedded and/or may be removable. The non-volatile memory can additionally or alternatively include an electrically erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM), flash memory or the like.

Typically, a resource management server application 150 is stored within the memory 130 to implement the functions of the online portal through the processor 120 on the resource management server 101. The resource management server application 150 allows a user 170 to connect to the resource management server 101 through a user device 100, in order to access the resource data therein as well as utilize the resource management tools provided through the online portal. The resource management server application 150 includes the logic code portions to determine the appropriate resource recommendations as well as the code portions to collect usage and historical data from the plurality of users 170 within the system.

The memory 130 may further include a database 140 containing data to be processed and/or manipulated by the resource management server application 150. The database 140 may contain usage and historical data provided by the users 170. The database 140 may also contain data on the various classifications to be used to categorize the resources and the users, on what classifications correspond to which resources, as well as logical links between and amongst the various resources and the users. It should be understood that while the database 140 is depicted as a single unit within a single resource management server in FIG. 2, the database 140 may represent multiple databases implemented across multiple resource management servers 101. It should also be understood that the resource management server application 150 may implemented in a distributed manner amongst a plurality resource management servers 101. The database 140 may also be stored on a separate, distinct memory 130 from the resource management server application 150.

The user device 100 typically also includes a processor 121 operatively coupled to a communication interface 111 and a memory 131. The memory 131 typically stores a resource management client application 151, which causes the processor 121 to display a user interface 160 to the user 170. It should be understood that the display on which the user interface 160 is presented may include an integrated display (e.g. a tablet or smartphone screen) within the user device 100, or an external display device (e.g. a computer monitor or television). The resource management client application 151 establishes a connection with the resource management server application 150 over the network 180 to allow the user 170 to access the various functions of the system. In particular, the resource management client application 151 receives inputs from the user interface 160, which may include such inputs as user authentication credentials, requests to upload resource data, which may include various types of data such as activity data, to the resource management server 101, requests to utilize the resource management tools of the resource management server application 150, and the like.

In a typical embodiment of the invention, the user 170 accesses the resource management client application 151 through the user interface 160. The resource management client application 151 sends a request over the network 180 to establish a communication link with the resource management server 101 through the resource management server application 150. Upon receiving the request, the resource management server application 150 causes the resource management server 101 to send a command to the user device 100 to prompt the user 170 for authentication credentials through the user interface 160. Upon receiving authentication credentials from the user 170, the resource management client application 151 sends the authentication credentials to the resource management server application 150. Upon successful authentication, a communication link between the resource management client application 151 and the resource management server application 150 is established. The user 170 then provides a request to upload resource data to the resource management client application 151, which then sends the resource data to the resource management server application 150. The resource management server application 150 then processes the contents of the resource data, and based on a combination of user inputs, historical data within the database 140, and various types of data found within the resource data, adds classifications or tags to the user 170 and/or the resource data provided by the user. The resource management server application 150 then predicts future actions that the user 170 intends to take within the user interface 160, and prompts the user through a notification to take the intended future action.

The system may store user activity data within the online portal within the database 140. In some embodiments, the resource management server application 150 may cause the processor 120 to periodically query the user device 100 to obtain snapshots of the state of the resource management client application 151. Upon receiving the query, the resource management client application 151 immediately obtains a snapshot of user actions taken within the graphical interface, then sends the snapshot to the resource management server 101. In other embodiments, the resource management client application 151 may continuously track user inputs and temporarily store them in the memory 131, then send the history of user inputs to the resource management server 101 upon receiving the query. In other embodiments, the resource management client application 151 may periodically track the user's inputs and push the input data to the resource management server 101 without waiting to receive a query.

Referring now to FIG. 3, a method 003 is provided for the identification and integration of resources and configuring resources for common use. This method 003 may be performed by the system described herein (e.g., by the resource management server 101).

Initially, at block 305, the system may analyze resources and/or attributes of a plurality of users (e.g., users of the system) to identify a subset of users having complementary resources and/or attributes. A group (e.g., subset) of users typically have complementary resources (e.g., goods, services, and the like) and/or attributes/classifications (as previously described) if the users provide varying resources and/or have varying attributes individually but, when aggregated, are able to provide a more holistic resource offering. For example, a first user may provide a service which requires a particular good as a material or component to complete the service, and a second user may offer the particular good as part of the second user's business. Thus, the resources of the first and second user would be considered complimentary, because even though each user may offer a different resource individually, in combination, the two users are able to provide a more holistic resource.

In some embodiments, the system may analyze resource transfer patterns to identify a subset of users having complimentary resource transfer patterns. A group of users typically have complementary resource transfer patterns (e.g., income patterns, patterns of obtaining/selling goods or services, inventory patterns, and the like) if the users individually have varying resource transfer patterns, but the users, when aggregated, have a fairly stable/constant resource transfer patterns with respect to particular/similar type of resource. For example, two users may have a history of annually consuming similar amounts of a certain good for their respective businesses; however, a first user may generally consume a high amount of the good during the first two quarters of the year, and a second user may generally consumes a high amount of the good during the third and fourth quarters of the year. Thus, their consumption of the good would be complementary, because although their consumption varies individually, the aggregate/average consumption of the good by the two users may be relatively constant. By way of further example, several users may have similar annual incomes, but different time periods in which their incomes are relatively high or low compared to other time periods. Although these users' incomes may vary individually (e.g., on a monthly basis), their incomes may be complementary such that the aggregate income of the users may be fairly stable (e.g., on a monthly basis).

In some embodiments, the system may identify a subset of users with the same or similar resources, attributes/classifications, and/or resource transfer patterns (e.g., users who provide the same or similar goods, services, and/or the like). By identifying the subset of users that provide the same service or another similar service, the system may identify alternative providers of the service. For example, a requesting user may request a service A from a first user before realizing that the requesting user requires more of service A than the first user can provide individually. In this way, the system identifies in the subset a second user who provides a same or similar service B to service A, wherein the requesting user may conveniently request the additional same or similar service B. In a further example, a first user and a second user who consume a same or similar amount of a good over a period of time may wish to generate an integrated resource cluster or collective (as described later, below) with other users on a similar scale of business. The system may identify first user and the second user within a subset of users with a same or similar resource transfer pattern which may at least partially indicate a similar scale of business and indicate a match according to the preferences of the first and second users for generating an integrated resource cluster. In other embodiments, the system may identify a subset of users with dissimilar resources, attributes/classifications, and/or resource transfer patterns (e.g., users who provide dissimilar goods, services, and/or the like). The identification of dissimilar resources, attributes/classifications, and/or resource transfer patterns may allow a user wishing to diversify holdings or resources to conveniently identify those users within the subset of users who may provide the opportunity for diversification. In some embodiments, the system may perform any of the steps described herein while, instead, identifying users with same, similar, or dissimilar resources, attributes/characteristics, and/or resource transfer patterns.

In order to identify users having complementary, similar, or dissimilar resources, attributes/classifications, and/or resource transfer patterns, the system may analyze various types of data related to the users. For example, the system may analyze the users' transaction history, usage of the system (e.g., offering, requesting, or exchanging resources through the system), business data, user classifications, resource classifications, and the like. This information may be obtained from the user (e.g., from a user device), previously stored on the resource management server 101, obtained from another entity system, and/or obtained from a third party.

Upon identifying users with complementary resources and/or attributes, at block 310, the system generates an integrated resource cluster comprising the subset of users. As used herein, an “integrated resource cluster” may refer to an association, company, or collective of users, entities, contractors, or businesses (e.g., such as users of the resource management system or application) formed to collectively pool and provide resources for common use and operate as a single entity within the resource management system while still maintaining a level of autonomy normally associated with independent contractors. In some embodiments, the cluster may be a temporary association that only lasts a predetermined period of time (e.g., six months, a year, or the like). In some embodiments, a user belonging to the integrated resource cluster may disassociate from the resource cluster at any time. In some embodiments, the integrated resource cluster may be a virtual company generated within the resource management system. In other embodiments, the integrated resource cluster may be hosted on a system or server other than the resource management system (e.g., a third party system or a financial institution system). In some embodiments, the integrated resource cluster allows for users (e.g., small businesses, contractors, temp workers, and the like) to operate as a single, larger entity. In this way, users may negotiate resource exchanges (e.g., transactions, contracts, bill payment, invoices, or the like) or apply for benefits (e.g., healthcare, insurance, or the like) that may normally be unavailable for the users individually.

At block 315, the system receives a resource exchange request from a requesting user. As used herein, a “resource exchange”, “resource transfer”, or “transaction”, may refer to any activities or communication between a user and the entity, activities or communication between multiple entities/users, communication between technology applications and the like. A resource transfer may refer to a payment, processing of funds, purchase of goods or services, a return of goods or services, a payment transaction, a credit transaction, or other interactions involving a user's resource or account. In the context of a financial institution or a resource entity such as a merchant, a resource transfer may refer to one or more of: a sale of goods and/or services, initiating an automated teller machine (ATM) or online banking session, an account balance inquiry, a rewards transfer, an account money transfer or withdrawal, opening a bank application on a user's computer or mobile device, a user accessing their e-wallet, or any other interaction involving the user and/or the user's device that invokes or is detectable by the financial institution. A resource transfer may include one or more of the following: renting, selling, and/or leasing goods and/or services (e.g., groceries, stamps, tickets, DVDs, vending machine items, and the like); making payments to creditors (e.g., paying monthly bills; paying federal, state, and/or local taxes; and the like); sending remittances; loading money onto stored value cards (SVCs) and/or prepaid cards; donating to charities; and/or the like. Unless specifically limited by the context, a “resource exchange”, “resource transfer” a “transaction”, “transaction event” or “point of transaction event” refers to any activity initiated between a user and a resource entity such as a merchant, between the user and the financial instruction, or any combination thereof. In some embodiments, a resource transfer or transaction may refer to financial transactions involving direct or indirect movement of funds through traditional paper transaction processing systems (i.e. paper check processing) or through electronic transaction processing systems. In this regard, resource transfers or transactions may refer to the user initiating a purchase for a product, service, or the like from a merchant. Typical financial transactions include point of sale (POS) transactions, automated teller machine (ATM) transactions, person-to-person (P2P) transfers, internet transactions, online shopping, electronic funds transfers between accounts, transactions with a financial institution teller, personal checks, conducting purchases using loyalty/rewards points etc. When discussing that resource transfers or transactions are evaluated it could mean that the transaction has already occurred, is in the process of occurring or being processed, or it has yet to be processed/posted by one or more financial institutions. In some embodiments, a resource transfer or transaction may refer to non-financial activities of the user. In this regard, the transaction may be a customer account event, such as but not limited to the customer changing a password, ordering new checks, adding new accounts, opening new accounts, adding or modifying account parameters/restrictions, modifying a payee list associated with one or more accounts, setting up automatic payments, performing/modifying authentication procedures, and the like.

As used herein, a “requesting user” may refer to a user or entity within the resource management system that requests a resource exchange from one or more other users or integrated resource cluster on the resource management system. As used herein, a “resource exchange request”, “resource transfer request”, or “transaction request” may refer to the request submitted to the resource management system by a requesting user for an exchange of resources. The resource exchange request may comprise a specified resource (e.g., a specific good or service) requested by the requesting user. In some embodiments, the resource exchange request may further comprise resource data associated with a requested resource (e.g., skillsets, geographic location, areas of expertise/profession, and the like). The resource exchange request may further comprise data associated with the requesting user, such as a geographic location (e.g., address, area code, or the like), contact information (e.g., name, phone number, email address, business card), an offer for payment or a bid, or financial information (e.g., credit/debit card information, banking account information, a digital check, a generated payment token, financial account information, or other payment or payment routing information). In some embodiments, the resource exchange request may contain an offer from the requesting user for a resource to be exchanged or traded for a requested resource.

In some embodiments, the system (e.g., the resource management system) may receive a resource exchange request from a user device over a network such as in a system environment similar to the environment 001 described in Figure and FIG. 2. The resource exchange request may be initiated from an application on a user device associated with the requesting user (e.g., the resource management client application) and transmitted over a network to a computing system or server (e.g., the resource management server) where the request may be received by the server and processed by an application (e.g., the resource management server application) for presentation to a user, entity, or integrated resource cluster via an online portal such as the online portal described herein.

In block 320, the system distributes resource transfer tasks to the subset of users of the integrated resource cluster to dispense an outbound resource to the requesting user. As used herein, a “resource transfer task” or “resource exchange task” may refer to one or more commands, jobs, tasks (e.g., to complete a requested service), a request for goods (e.g., an order or purchase), or the like generated by the system in response to receiving a resource exchange request, the resource transfer tasks needing to be completed in order to fulfill or meet the resource exchange request. As used herein, an “outbound resource, may refer to a resource provided, dispensed, or exchanged by a user (e.g., the integrated resource cluster) to a requesting user within the resource management system. Conversely, an “inbound resource”, as used herein, may refer to a resource provided, dispensed, or exchanged by the requesting user to the user (e.g., the integrated resource cluster) in return for receiving the outbound resource from the user. A resource exchange request may be considered fulfilled upon the requesting user receiving an outbound resource. Similarly, a resource transfer task generated from a resource exchange request may be considered completed upon the requesting user receiving the outbound resource as requested. In some embodiments, a resource exchange request may be considered fulfilled, completed, paid, or the like upon the user receiving the inbound resource and the requesting user receiving the outbound resource as requested. In some embodiments, the exchange of an inbound resource and an outbound resource is a transaction that may be arranged and completed via the resource management system described herein.

In some embodiments, one or more resource exchange requests may comprise one or more resource transfer tasks. In some embodiments, the resource management system may determine from a received resource exchange request one or more resource transfer tasks that must be completed in order to fulfill or meet the request. In some embodiments, the system may reference a database of previously completed resource exchange requests to determine one or more likely associated resource transfer tasks that may be required. For example, upon receiving a first resource exchange request from a requesting user, the resource management system may determine task 1, task 2, and task 3 that must be completed in order for the resource exchange request to be considered sufficiently completed or fulfilled. In some embodiments one or more resource transfer tasks determined from a resource exchange request may be similar, dissimilar, or complimentary to one another, wherein the resources, attributes/classifications, resource data, and/or resource transfer patterns of users or a subset of users (e.g., an integration resource cluster) appropriately identified or matched to the one or more resource tasks for completion are similar, dissimilar, or complimentary to one another. The system may distribute or assign one or more resource transfer tasks to one or more users or subset of users of the resource management system, having identified that the resources, attributes/classifications, resource data, and/or resource transfer patterns associated with the users or subset of users meet the requirements of the resource exchange request for completing the one or more resource transfer tasks.

In some embodiments of the invention, a resource exchange request may be at least partially directed by the system to an integrated resource cluster that the system has identified for completing the resource exchange request and associated resource transfer tasks. The system may distribute the determined resource transfer tasks to the users or entities comprising the integrated resource cluster based on the resources, attributes/classifications, and/or resource data associated with the users or entities. In some embodiments a resource exchange request may be directed to more than one user, subset of users, or integrated resource cluster for completing one or more distributed or assigned resource transfer tasks. For example, the system may receive a resource exchange request from a requesting user and determine a task 1 and a task 2 required for completion of the request. The system may identify a first user who provides resource 1 for completing task 1 and a second user who provides resource 2 for completing task 2. The system may distribute the tasks to the users such that task 1 is assigned to the first user and task 2 is assigned to the second user for completion.

In some embodiments, the system may facilitate and process a series of resource exchange requests from multiple users. In this way, complex resource exchanges may be easily and efficiently negotiated and executed within the resource management system. For example, a user 1 with resource 1 may request a resource 2; a user 2 with resource 2 may request a resource 3; and a user 3 with resource 3 may request a resource 1. The system may arrange the series of resource exchanges necessary to connect the three users and meet their requirements by acting as an intermediary for the exchanges so that user 1 receives resource 2 from user 2, user 2 receives resource 3 from user 3, and user 3 receives resource 1 from user 1. In some embodiments, the series of resource exchange requests may be completed simultaneously by the system to reduce risk an incomplete series of exchanges or fraud.

In some embodiments, the resource management system may further comprise a message or notification service within the only platform, wherein assignments of one or more resource transfer tasks may be transmitted to a user or subset of users via a user device application (e.g., the resource management client application). Upon receiving a resource exchange request, the system may transmit a command and message via the resource management server application stored in the memory of the resource management server to a user device of a user, the command causing the user device to generate and display the transmitted message to the user via the resource management client application. In some embodiments, the online platform may further allow for messages to be transmitted and received between users or a subset of users. In this way, users or a subset of users may coordinate resources or resource transfer tasks for efficient completion of a resource exchange request.

At block 325, the system receives an inbound resource from the requesting user. In some embodiments, the system transfers or deposits the inbound resource to a resource storage location (e.g., an account, e-wallet, or the like). In some embodiments, the resource storage location may be a storage location associated with the integrated resource cluster, wherein the location is a shared, commonly-owned storage location (e.g., a joint account). In other embodiments, the resource storage location may be one or more resource storage locations associated with the users or subset of users comprising the integrated resource cluster (e.g., individual or personal accounts).

In some embodiments, the inbound resource may be received from another user from the subset of users within the integrated resource cluster to complete a task, wherein the requesting user is a user within the subset of users (e.g., a transfer of resources to partnered users within the cluster). For example, a first user within the integrated resource cluster may require a first good to complete an assigned task. A second user within the resource cluster may provide or have a surplus of the first good. The first user may request a resource exchange with the second user for the first good. In some embodiments, the first user may not be required to provide a second resource to the second user in return for the first good. In some embodiments, the first user may be credited the first good or other resource, wherein repayment may be made in the future.

Based on receiving the inbound resource, at block 330, the system determines an inbound resource total for the integrated resource cluster. In some embodiments, the system may calculate a total amount of inbound resources or revenue received by the integrated resource cluster. In some embodiments, the resource total may be determined or calculated at regular or predetermined time intervals (e.g., weekly, bimonthly, monthly, annually, or the like). In other embodiments, the resource total may be determined or calculated in real-time as inbound resources are received or a resource exchange request is completed. In some embodiments, the system may access one more financial accounts (e.g., savings, checking, e-wallet, or the like) associated with the integrated resource cluster or the subset of users comprising the integrated resource cluster in order to accurately monitor the resource transfers or resource transfer patterns and determine an inbound resource total. In some embodiments, the system may determine a total amount of outbound resources and incorporate the amount into the calculation of the total amount of inbound resources to determine a profit of the user or integrated resource cluster. In this way, the system may provide a holistic view of the resources of the user or integrated resource cluster.

At block 335, the system calculates a first resource division for the first user and a second resource division for the second user from the inbound resource total. As used herein, a “resource division” may refer to a resource amount, percentage, ratio, or the like calculated by the system which divides an inbound resource total for distribution and transfer to the users of an integrated resource cluster or other subset of users. In some embodiments, resource divisions may be calculated based on resource transfer tasks distributed to the users of the integrated resource cluster. In some embodiments, resource divisions may be calculated based on an individual or total amount of inbound resources received (e.g., payment) and/or outbound resources expended (e.g., goods, services, or time) upon completion of one or more resource transfer tasks. In other embodiments, resource divisions may be predetermined by the subset of users comprising the integrated resource cluster. In one example, a first user and second user belonging to an integrated resource cluster both completed resource transfer tasks associated with a resource exchange request received by the system from a requesting user and directed to the integrated resource cluster. In this example, the first user provided 40% of the resources required to complete the request, while the remaining 60% of resources required were provided by the second user. Accordingly, the system determines a first resource division of the total inbound resources received from the requesting user to be 40% for the first user and the second resource division to be 60% for the second user. In another example, a first user may have completed a first resource transfer task in exchange for X amount of inbound resources and a second user may have completed a second resource transfer task in exchange for Y amount of inbound resources, both resource transfer tasks being required for completion of a resource exchange request. Accordingly, the system may determine a first resource division of the total inbound resources associated with the resource exchange request to be X for the first user and the second resource division to be Y for the second user. In some embodiments, the system may calculate multiple resource divisions for multiple users within an integrated resource cluster.

In response to calculating the first and second resource divisions, the system, at block 340, transfers the first resource division to the first user and the second resource division to the second user. In some embodiments, the system may transfer resource divisions to one more financial accounts (e.g., savings, checking, e-wallet, or the like) associated with the subset of users comprising the integrated resource cluster. In some embodiments, the system may generate a digital wallet to store resources or resource divisions. The system may temporarily store resources or resource divisions within the system, wherein the resources or resource divisions may be accessed in the digital wallet via the resource management client application and used in further resource exchanges within the resource management system. In some embodiments, in response to calculating a resource division, the system may trigger the transfer of a physical resource (e.g., a physical check or cash deposit). For example, upon calculating a first resource division, the system may trigger the printing and mailing of a check to a first user, wherein the system transmits a command to a printer to print the check for the first resource division in the name of the first user, the command including information associated with the first resource division (e.g., an amount, source account, and the like) and the first user (e.g., name, routing information, and the like). In some embodiments, resource divisions may be calculated and transferred at regular or predetermined time intervals (e.g., weekly, bimonthly, monthly, annually, or the like). In other embodiments, resource divisions may be calculated and transferred in real-time as inbound resources are received or as a resource exchange request is completed.

Each communication interface described herein generally includes hardware, and, in some instances, software, that enables the computer system, to transport, send, receive, and/or otherwise communicate information to and/or from the communication interface of one or more other systems on the network. For example, the communication interface of the user input system may include a wireless transceiver, modem, server, electrical connection, and/or other electronic device that operatively connects the user input system to another system. The wireless transceiver may include a radio circuit to enable wireless transmission and reception of information.
